  • About the artist

    Lanooy was born in Sint-Annaland i 1881 as son of Cornelis Lanooij and Janna van 't Hof. Lanooy studied at the Royal Academy of Art, The Hague and was a student of the Roermond architect and artist Pierre Cuypers and Gouda painter and art teacher Jan Lugthart. As a ceramist, he was an autodidact.

    He worked at ceramic factories in The Hague, Gouda en Purmerend, and at the Royal Leerdam Crystal glass factory in Leerdam. His work has been exhibited regularly at home and abroad. The Princessehof Ceramics Museum in Leeuwarden has more than a hundred works of Lanooy in the collection. In 2002 this museum dedicated a retrospective exhibition of his work. Twenty-five years earlier, in 1977, this museum also dedicated an exhibition to his work. This exhibition was opened by the then Minister of Culture, Recreation and Social work, Harry van Doorn.

    Lanooy was married to Joanna Elisabeth Schuitemaker. He died in January 1948 at the age of 66 in the province of Gelderland in Epe. In September 2008, the renewed council hall of the town hall of Epe was renamed the Lanooy lounge, and contained a stained glass window of Lanooy.
